The Circus

Momo and Papaw took Tucker to the the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus a couple of weeks ago. It's a tradition that my grandparents started when I was a child, and I'm thrilled that Tucker was able to experience it for the first time. The circus hasn't changed much over the years. There are still sno-cones in tiger souvenir cups, cotton candy, and light up toys galore! Cousin Clay was unable to go this year due to his musical performances, but hopefully he can join in next year. Tucker really enjoyed all of the excitement of the day. His favorite acts were the tigers and watching the performers balance on spinning wheels. He wasn't so sure about getting up close and personal with the clowns (see below) but he seemed to really enjoy them from afar! His weird request of the day was for binoculars at the souvenir stand. Out of all of the things to choose from and he wants binoculars? How he even knew what they were is beyond me, but he loves 'em!






Not sure about the clown!

Fun! Ethan got that same Elephant light up toy. Aiden loves to watch his big brother play with that, always stops his crying
